What kind of wine is Paestum Greco IGP 'Calpazio' 2024 - San Salvatore 1988
The Paestum Greco IGP 'Calpazio' 2024 - San Salvatore 1988 is a fresh and harmonious white wine from Campania, produced with Greco grapes from vineyards cultivated organically in the heart of Cilento, in the province of Salerno. This area, characterized by calcareous soils and a Mediterranean climate mitigated by sea breezes, gives the wine a mineral and vibrant character. Elegant yet immediate, 'Calpazio' perfectly represents the style of the San Salvatore 1988 winery: authenticity, respect for nature, and enhancement of native grape varieties.Vintage Details
The 2024 vintage in Campania was characterized by balanced climatic conditions. After a rainy winter, a mild spring favored good flowering, while the summer, warm but breezy, allowed for slow and complete ripening of the grapes. The result is a Greco with a perfect balance between body and freshness, with a clear and persistent aromatic profile.Winemaking and Aging
The grapes are harvested manually in the early hours of the morning to best preserve the primary aromas of the varietal. This is followed by fermentation in stainless steel at controlled temperatures, which maintains the aromatic components and the fruit's vivacity intact. Aging continues for about 8 months, still in stainless steel, a choice that preserves the wine's purity and freshness, without interference from wood.Tasting Notes
